The most promising candidate for short-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is the merger of two neutron stars (NSs), which produces kilonovae (KNe) in the aftermath. This merging can result in a fast-spinning, highly magnetic NS, known as a…
Standard EU energy system modelling approaches optimize for least-cost, leading to highly centralized systems, in conflict with political feasibility and physical security concerns. This paper incorporates decentralisation as a constraint…
The Atacama Large (sub-)millimeter Array (ALMA) has been in scientific operations for almost 15 years. We celebrate this achievement by providing a summary of the ``Disks and planet formation'' scientific category, with an emphasis on the…
Molecular emission is observed in a wide variety of astrophysical environments, yet a substantial fraction of spectral features detected at mm wavelengths remains unidentified. Identifying these features is essential for constraining the…
Generating and characterizing uniform and staggered spin polarization in antiferromagnets is one of the key challenges for antiferromagnetic spintronic technology. Here, we perform perturbative theory, group-theoretical symmetry analysis,…
Electric flow sampling (elfs) is a new tool in the quantum walk toolbox and a useful primitive for solving search, sampling and optimization problems on graphs. We refine this tool by showing that there exists a zero-error transducer for…
Alloy-based perovskite solar cells offer tunable properties and improved stability, but their complexity has impeded accurate modeling, hindering development. We present a machine-learning (ML) accelerated atomistic modeling approach for…
We introduce a one dimensional spin $\frac{1}{2}$ Hamiltonian with multi-site interactions, but still local. The algebra of its Hamiltonian densities resembles that of the transverse field Ising model. Using this fact we show that its…
This note studies the quantized corner structure of four-dimensional $BF$ theory, classifies the associated free and physical corner algebras and constructs possible representations. In the abelian case, for arbitrary closed oriented…
Large-scale quantum networks will enable entirely new applications of quantum information science in fields such as quantum communication, distributed quantum computing, sensing, and metrology. To build nodes of such networks, diamond color…
The accelerating growth of global data generation demands data storage platforms that offer high capacity, long lifespan, and low energy consumption beyond the limits of electronic memory technologies. Optical storage provides an attractive…
We present results on the Mellin moments of the unpolarized parton distribution function (PDF) of the pion and kaon up to the fourth order. The computation is done using one $N_f=2+1+1$ gauge ensemble of twisted mass fermions with quark…
We develop a perturbative, diagrammatic framework for constructing Nicolai maps and apply it to four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ Poincar\'e supergravity expanded around flat Minkowski space. It provides an alternative to the…
We present a theoretical investigation of the magnetic and thermodynamic properties of the triangular spin-1/2 cluster with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction, described by a spin-1/2 Heisenberg Hamiltonian with antisymmetric exchange…
In this work, we analyze the feasibility of room-temperature superconductivity in the lanthanum-scandium hydride $\textit{P6/mmm}$-LaSc$_2$H$_{24}$. We demonstrate that the electron-phonon coupling calculations performed using the…
Full-disk observations of the Sun in the Ca II K line have been carried out since the late 19th century at various observatories worldwide. These long-term records of solar activity are crucial for reducing discrepancies among solar…
The streaming instability is the leading model for planetesimal formation in protoplanetary disks, but it typically operates within the first ~Myr. In the Solar System, however, some planetesimals (the chondrite parent bodies) formed 2-4…
Four-wave mixing (FWM) is an efficient source of light waves emitted at various frequencies, usually associated with third-order optical nonlinearities. Whereas attention has mostly been paid in the past to the generation of Stokes (e.g.,…
We evaluate the climate simulation capabilities of ArchesWeather and ArchesWeatherGen, two machine learning models originally trained for weather forecasting and evaluated up to a 10-day lead time. ArchesWeather is a deterministic model,…
We investigate the geodesic structure and optical appearance of compact objects with primary scalar hair in shift- and parity-symmetric beyond Horndeski gravity. The analytic solution considered here depends on a theory parameter and a…
